Features Of Dow CAT 10000PA CMC PEO HPMC Thickener

  1. Multi-polymer synergistic formulation combining carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), polyethylene oxide (PEO), and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) for balanced rheology and enhanced suspension stability.

  2. High-shear reversible thickening behavior ideal for pumpable, sprayable, and high-solids formulations without gelation or stringiness.

  3. Excellent compatibility with electrolytes, surfactants, and common industrial additives across a broad pH range (3–11).

  4. Low-foaming profile suitable for high-agitation processing and automated dispensing systems.

  5. Consistent batch-to-batch performance supported by Dow’s stringent quality control and traceable manufacturing standards.

Typical Applications Of Dow CAT 10000PA CMC PEO HPMC Thickener

  1. Architectural coatings: interior/exterior flat and low-sheen paints requiring sag resistance and spatter control.

  2. Industrial maintenance coatings: primers and topcoats for metal and concrete substrates requiring extended wet-edge time.

  3. Agrochemical suspensions: water-dispersible granules (WDG) and suspension concentrates (SC) demanding long-term particle stabilization.

  4. Cleaning formulations: heavy-duty liquid detergents and disinfectants requiring viscosity build and active ingredient homogenization.

  5. Construction mortars and tile adhesives: cement-based and polymer-modified systems requiring open time and anti-sag performance.
